Some modifiers require the Player to perform some adjustments to the NoteField. This page documents what gets affected and how.
Note that this is useful knowledge if trying to replicate some modifiers on a Def.NoteField by itself or if you need something to follow what a Player does.
Any part that relies in reverse/downscroll only takes effect when the first column is more than 50% towards downscroll.
All modifiers mentioned are calculated in floating point format, so 150% would be represented as 1.5.
Scaling zoom and position based on SCREEN_HEIGHT/480 is only needed if using a Def.NoteField outside of a scaled ActorFrame.
This is based on metrics and the tilt modifier (100% Hallway/Incoming = -1 tilt and 100% Distant/Space = 1 tilt)
Note that the amount tilt adds goes positive when in reverse/downscroll.
Base amount: (upscroll receptor position + downscroll receptor position) / 2
Positive tilt (Distant/Space): scale(tilt, 0, 1, 0, -45) or -45*tilt
Negative tilt (Hallway/Incoming): scale(tilt, 0, -1, 0, -20)or 20*tilt
Here's how to grab the relevant metrics in lua:
local receptposup = THEME:GetMetric("Player","ReceptorArrowsYStandard")
local receptposdown = THEME:GetMetric("Player","ReceptorArrowsYReverse")
-- This is your base amount of y position. The amount from tilt adds onto this.
local notefieldy = (receptposup + receptposdown)/2
This is based on the tilt modifier. (100% Hallway/Incoming = -100% tilt and 100% Distant/Space = 100% tilt)
Note that the amount of rotation gets *-1 when in reverse/downscroll.
Base amount: scale(tilt, -1, 1, 30, -30) or -30*tilt
This is based on the mini and tilt modifiers. (100% Hallway/Incoming = -100% tilt and 100% Distant/Space = 100% tilt)
Mini: scale(mini, 0, 1, 1, .5) or 1 - (0.5*mini)
Tilt: scale(tilt, 0, 1, 1, 0.9) (positive) or scale(tilt, 0, -1, 1, 0.9) (negative) or 1 - 0.1*abs(tilt)
These two are multiplied together. If the z axis shouldn't be scaled, then zoomz becomes 1/(mini zoom * tilt zoom), taking care to not divide by zero.
This is dependant on metrics, skew and Player position and is added onto by what is given through vanishpointx/vanishpointy. This is applied on the ActorFrame containing the NoteField.
(100% Space/Incoming = 100% skew)
X position: scale(skew, 0, 1, Player:GetX(), SCREEN_CENTER_X) +layer's vanish point x
Y position: Player:GetY() + NoteField base y position + player's vanish point y
The metrics can be grabbed as seen in the Y Position section. Note that the base notefield position isn't scaled in this as of now.
A NoteField does not have its' own FOV, and instead relies on Player to have an FOV for 3d effects. This is applied on the ActorFrame containing the NoteField.
The default value is 45.
